Individual counseling, also known as "Talk Therapy" or "Psychotherapy" is traditional counseling. Though clients seldom lie down on a couch, this is the image that often floods our brains when someone mentions counseling.
Individual counseling works best when the client feels a connection with the counselor, and feels safe and secure enough to talk about his/her concerns with his/her life. There are many reasons people seek counseling. Sometimes it is because of severe problems like trauma, PTSD, or abuse. Other times individuals seek counseling due to a life circumstance that is effecting their ability to function daily. This may be a relationship problem with a friend, family member or significant other, a move, problems parenting a difficult child, ongoing health concerns, or the death or loss of a loved one. Other times, people might experience mental health concerns, such as anxiety, depression, self-harm, disordered eating or suicidal thoughts.
